Thank you for all your HELP on the new web site

Dear FTF Member,
Support FTF by Subscribing to Hatches Today! 2011 Issue - In Stock
Since 2003 FlyTyingForum.com has grown from a handful of people to 30,000 registered members and has become the largest fly tying community in the world. In 2007 I published the first issue of Hatches because I felt the FTF community could offer a printed magazine that far exceeds anything the fly tying world has ever seen published. To this day, Hatches is largely made up of articles submitted to me by FTF member and FTF will continue to play a large role in the future of Hatches. Hatches truly is a grassroots effort, unlike many of the other publications in circulation that have the backing of large media corporations. The future of both Hatches and FTF depends on the support of FTF members like you. For $7 a year, you not only help ensure that I have the resources needed to be able to offer you all of the features you enjoy today free of charge, you also get 96 pages of pure fly tying awesomeness that is worth the price by itself. Click Here for Subscription Info Thank You -Will

a few thoughts

1. delete the yellow lure and replace with a fly. your site is for fly tying not lure making

2. delete "welcome to our website" or make the font size bigger

3. the color combination is spot on!!

4. notice the position of the title "hooked on tying" on the home page. make that the same location on all of the following pages. i like the way the lettering goes over that looking glass thing

5. music - is it really necessary. to me its annoying. check out other tying catalog sites - no music

6. the yellow "hooked on tying" at the bottom of the home page. should it be the same color as the top? and the mirror effect - is it really needed?

7. in the 3 boxes on the lower left - i cant see the word "more" in dark gray font color - make it white so people can see it

8. that applesque bar at the top is cool! no change there!

9. in that copyright area at the bottom of the page - add a button that says "top" to bring you back to the top of the page

Your site looks awesome, and I am sure it will be worth your time and effort once the sales start rolling in.

Site looks really nice Tom......Only thing I would say is just one thing, I agree with flytire (ditch the music). Music on websites/splash pages were a bit thing back in the 90's but anymore they just make a website seem dated no matter how up to date the site is so IMO I'd say you'd be better off without the music. Besides that it looks real good

Is this just a "redo" of an existing business or a new business venture? if its new then don't forget to file 720 forms each quarter with the IRS. If they don't get their fishing excise tax from us fishing related business owners they aren't happy
